I find that scenario highly unlikely. Here's the link to the thread I was talking about so you can see where myself (and a couple others) might be coming from:...
Also, someone who apears to be from this "Sil Lum Kune" schools recently posted on another forum how his school recently discovered their "long lost" black tiger past. I didn't put one and one...
Well, this particular page gives info into 2005 while the original post in dragon's list was written in 2002.
Just ignore him. He's as stupid, dishonest, and cowardly as his fake @ss teachers. I think this thread's run its course.
Zhao Bao's status is debatable (most will go with Chen being oldest). I don't know much about Zhao Bao though there's obviously a connection at some point. Yang came from Chen. Wu developed from...
What are you smoking? Saying "Ssshhhhhhh, Don't Say Chao!!!" and "CHAO!!!!! Look David, I'm saying CHAO!!!!!!!" is not slander... the other item you quoted is a quote from someone else (hence the...
RD's been pretty darn honest compared to a lot of people out there. He's never set himself up as a grandmaster, and has allways been upfront as to where his kungfu comes from. He admits to learning...
This thread is old as dirt...
BTW, I hope I don't get threatened with a lawsuit next year :D (RD will know what I'm talking about) :p
Wow, for that low low price you get rank in a non-existant military, multiple degrees from an unacredited university, and you get to inherit a phoney kungfu lineage. Sign me up! :rolleyes:
lol, no, defenitely not Baji :D
China's got both types... it's all about who and what you know though. You could get an awesome (and cheap!) teacher to learn from, or get completely screwed if you're not careful :p More extremes...

Got any vids?
Gah! You added to your post while I was replying :mad:
Do a web search on a chang quan style called Mei Hua Quan (Plum Flower Fist) for starters. I'd find a good link for you myself, but I...
Your logic is faulty. Is Sun style more advanced than Chen, Yang, and Wu styles? Following your train of thought it would be. And though I didn't say taiji quan and chang quan are the same thing,...
Of course you do realize taiji quan used to be called chang quan, don't you?
Apples and oranges. Just because one style doesn't have anothers specific training method, it doesn't make it more "beginer". Xingyi people don't do Wing Chun's chi sao drills... doesn't make wing...
Not really.
Also, longfist styles aren't "beginer" or "advanced". They both :p If it's only used as beginer material or only advanced material then odds are you're missing something from the system. Of course...
Some sort of longfist is often taught to beginers at some schools not just because of the athleticism it develops, but also because often longfist systems take a bit of a "jack of all trades" aproach...
BTW, just something I've been curious about, any of you know how old Sin The is now?
Now days, when your grandmaster "teaches something out", does he take the time to make sure someone knows the material inside and out before it becomes part of another school's curriculum, or does he...
I think Hua (China) was the one atributed to Hua shan. Hua in this case means "glorious" which is the name use for China in Chinese. My source: http://www.plumpub.com/info/knotebook/boxhuashan.htm...
